Reading Room
Join fellow readers in the Macon Library Book Club as we take our first stab at a monolithic figure in New York City history in Robert Caro’s The Power Broker: Robert Moses and the Fall of New York.
Moses shaped downstate New York and the fabric of life in the city over decades of carefully crafted control, and his fingerprints cover everything from public transit to recreation to building codes throughout the five boroughs. Caro’s riveting and meticulous reconstruction of his rise and reign spans decades and echoes loudly into the present.
Join us as we start our journey through the years of Moses at Macon!
361 Lewis Ave. at Macon St.
